Rheumatism is caused by poison- ous toxin, called uric acid, which is generated in the bowels, and absorb- | ed into the blood. It is the function | of the kidneys to filter this acid from | the blood and cast it out in the urine. The pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this im- purity, In damp and chilly, cold | weather the skin pores are closed, | thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they become weak and slug- | gish and fail to eliminate this ure | acid which keeps accumulating and circulating through the system, ev-| entually settling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism. At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts; put a table- spoonful in a glass of water and drink before breakfast each morn- ing for a week. This is said to elim- inate urie acid by stimulating the kid- neys to normal action, thus ridding the blood of these impurities. Jad Baits is Inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and is used with excellent results by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism. Here you have a pleas- ant, effervescent lithia-water drink which overcomes uric acid ahd is beneficial to your kidneys.as well. (Best's Spring Needs Garden and Flower Seeds ?

But when a godly layman who has spent near- ly all'his life in one township, hears the call "Come Home" and from the glekMing of life's evening enters into' eternal diy, because his circuit of life's journey has been circumscribed by settled residence the number to mourn his demise and speak his: praises is necessarily limited to com- paratively few. But were such worthy men; as Joseph Lawson was widely known the value of their ex- ample would be told by many. It is the unwillingness of the wri- ter that such sterling faithfulness and solid worth should pass unob- served, "fading away like the stars of the morning," that prompts him, unasked, to record his appreciation of the deceased in the following lines: Ae In June, 1889 when I was appoint- Roseborough Walsh, Brampton; ed to Elginburg circuit, Iwas ap-| spent the week-end with Mr. and proaching my work with that sense | Mrs. A.

There never was allowed to remain a deficiency at the appointment where he was steward, and when Brother Irvine was put on as his colleague steward Brother Lawson's joy, at having one of known interest in the work and activity, was, I think even greater than if he had been going to receive the benefit himself, In his last letter to me, about a year ago, while speaking of the preciousness of communion with God, he spoke also words of appreciation of his then pastor. He discouraged cant, fanaticism, and wildfire, but loved the lifg of fervet outspoken devotion. In the public service he never missed the opportunity of witnessing for Christ; and so consistent was his life that all who knew him never doubted the Miss Gwendolyn Folger has after spending the holidays with Mr, and Mrs, Howard Folger, "Edge- water". f Mr. and Mrs. F.
